Eyjafjallajoekull - climate activist extraordinaire

Statistician | 16.04.2010 23:44 | Climate Chaos | World

Here's to an incredible first action ..

In 24 hours the Eyjafjallajoekull Volcano made a small estimated release of 7,412 tons of CO2, in doing so grounding 60% of European flights for the day and preventing the release of 206,465 tons of CO2. I make that the most successful direct action of all time - hats off to the world's latest domestic extremist.
